This aftermarket adapter set is made for the TRAXXAS Slash 4X4 Low-CG chassis, featuring a machined aluminium gear adapter mated to hardened steel 32-pitch gears. The kit pairs a 54-tooth spur with a 16-tooth motor gear to keep gear mesh stiffness and power transfer consistent under load.
Role and durability: the aluminium adapter reduces spur wobble and flex compared with stock plastic housings, while the hardened steel spur and motor gear resist wear from higher torque and extended running. The 54T spur with a 16T motor gear yields a nominal ratio of 54:16 (1:3.375); the listing also shows alternate pinion sizes and their ratios for setup reference.
Fitting notes: check motor mount alignment and pinion seating before installing, establish correct backlash and confirm mesh across the full rotation to prevent premature wear. This set is supplied to match the geometry of the 68086-21 version, so confirm your chassis version prior to replacement.
Use this set to replace worn plastic adapters or stripped steel gears on a Slash 4X4 Low-CG chassis, and change motor pinion size to tune acceleration, top speed and ESC thermal load.
